franklin roosevelt was frustrated when the court said no to his plans expanding the u.s. supreme court from 9 to 15. he said it's about efficiency because the court is behind his docket. that wasn't a very honest explanation. the real problem was the court was out of sync with the time that in his first term he got no appointments whatsoever. something at that point had been unprecedented and he thought the court should sort of reflect the country but he wasn't quite honest about that. when abe lincoln dies and the radical republicans don't like andrew johnson, they shrink the size of the court to prevent him from having some appointments. the outgoing federalists when thomas jefferson was elected in 1801 shrank the size of the supreme court so he wouldn't have a first appointment. there's a history here. >> i feel like for students or viewers who took their last american government class in whatever 11th grade and they think what is it that the court does again and when we say the court, we tend to mean the supreme court of the united states. we sort of get what's going
